I more meant if you require companies to send you goods to review for your business to work, then you can’t be impartial.

Untrustworthy. Real reviewers buy the product. If you are reliant on companies to send you product to review then you cannot be impartial.

The yule parts are good. The lights, the family, the drinking. Do what we can to chase the terror of the long night away.

People admire those that do things they like. When a LOT of people like the same person it can turn into a feedback loop. Couple that with parasocial relationships and easy communication via the Internet and it can easily blow up. We’re also programmed to like people that are popular because others like them.

That… Sounds exactly like how every smart asshole describes themselves. Don’t know anything about Linus, just basing that off your description.

Musk HATES hates public transportation. Which is weird because he’s in a private jet when he travels anyways.

Same thing for ttrpgs. That was pretty much all I used reddit for the last few years. It has since just gone away. I’ve functionally stopped accruing new rpg creators and news.

Also comics. I followed a lot of new creators in the last few years. Most of them only post on Reddit.

Even then, that’s $1.5-$3 for a single meal, plus your cost of toast. Compared to people in cities everywhere getting $5-10 breakfast sandwiches and then $7 coffees, etc. Or just people spending $4/lb on cheap ground beef (that’s the ALDI near me, 80/20) to make hamburger, hamburger helper, etc. Avocado toast isn’t expensive by any metric.

Yeah. How dare people want to protect trans rights. The gall.

And then you can sue.

How about a fucking sedan?

The Ford Fiesta, a subcompact, can tow 2,000lb. For the vast, vast majority of tow jobs a standard car with a hitch will be just fine. Fuck, half of England tows RVs across their country every summer and they mostly drive cars smaller than Americans.

Oh, and the person driving that Kei truck? He likely doesn’t own it, it’s for his job. Trucks are work vehicles. Almost no Americans need pickup trucks. It’s a luxury status symbol that’s highly dangerous. The few times someone needs to haul shit, you can rent one and then you don’t have to worry as much about scratching the pristine bed that 99% of American truck owners never use.

How about a Saturn 5 rocket? While we’re just making shit up about what truck owners ever do.

It looks like a PS1 era game. It looks like Cloud Strife’s model.

The same reason merchandise sellers are on Amazon even though Amazon forces them to lower prices and make less: if you’re NOT on Amazon, people just won’t find you. If you’re not on Spotify, you don’t exist in the music world to some people. Because otherwise where else will they search for you? Youtube Music or Apple Music, both pay sites. Otherwise you’re having word of mouth or searching manually.

Any track, not any artist. You could have a hundred tracks getting hundreds of streams a piece. Maximum before cutoff would be about $3/track. Not a ton but could be hundreds of dollars. And combining that from dozens to thousands of artists potentially in that boat.

Not foreign operations. But it’s relatively easy to get a us military tech job that is low impact. Application process is 3-6mo long but once you’re in your golden.

It’s not really an issue for most people who aren’t exercising. And I can say this as one who fucks, regardless of your juvenile attempts at disparagement.

Maybe. But we already do this for a lot of things. Drugs is the most well-known. If we know what the production cost is (and the government can just request that info), we can set the price ceiling to ensure the profit floor still exists. This is pretty common in government contracts: % profit.

The ceiling would have to still be profitable. And if this is a thing people need but can’t afford while profitable, the government should provide it.

People need to learn from history and realize corporations exist to serve the people and at the people’s pleasure. You have to apply for a corporation and a we’ve seen with Trump, can be dissolved. Which should really happen a lot more often.

We should apply it the other way: Tax Surplus. There’s a lot of valuation in companies in billionaires that could be taxed better.
